Coding the category color
Hi,
I am using a template called WP-Pravda and it pulls out contents from pages or posts on the front page, in a masonry style. Each post has a different color, depending either on its category or on a specific color attached to the post, see example here : http://demo.color-theme.com/?theme=Pravda
I am no developper but I managed to make it pull all my Anspress Questions on the front page, which is nice 🙂
Yet these Anspress Questions don’t bear the color of their category.
I was told I could add an extra-option on a file of the template, and I identified the part of the code related to it :
$of_options[] = array(   “name”      => __( “Get the custom color for posts from:” , “color-theme-framework” ),
“desc”      => __( “Choose how to define the color for posts.” , “color-theme-framework” ),
“id”      => “{$prefix}post_color_type”,
“std”      => “Post settings”,
“type”      => “select”,
“options” Â Â Â => array(
‘post’Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â => ‘Post settings’,
‘category’Â Â Â Â Â Â => ‘Category settings’,
 ‘anspress_category’      => ‘Anspress’
)
I tried adding the line in bold but it doesn’t work as I do not know how the category of a question is meant to be called in Anspress. Do you guys know what I should put here ?
Thanks for your answer 🙂
salut !
I would use css to resolve the problem. If you right-click on a post on a category page and then click Inspect* you will find at the end of this page some identifiers. If the category is Général you will see .question_category-general
Then in the style.css of your theme (preferably child-theme) you can add:
.question_category-general {background:#e6e6e6 !important; }
Replace the part “general” and the color #e6e6e6Â according to the case.
Hope that helps
